Category: Hybrid sonnet

A hybrid sonnet combines features of Petrarchan and Shakespearean form. For example, a Petrarchan octave (e.g. ABBAABBA) followed by a quatrain and a couplet (e.g. CDCDEE); or two quatrains rhymed differently (e.g., ABAB CDCD) followed by a Petrarchan sestet (e.g., EFGEFG). It may contain one or more voltas at any point.
